A little while ago I stripped my R down to the frame, when I took it all apart i figured what a perfect time to loosen up the rear shock! So I tried to turn the preload adjustment but it was seazed up solid! I dont know how to get it loose. Can anyone shed some light on my situation? Thanks, Killer.

 

Can someone help me ?

 

If ya can not turn the spanner nuts ....maybe you..should consider a new shock ..
after all its old & probably needs rebuilding .

 

My shock was the same way when I bought my R. Some good penetrating oil a hammer and a large screwdriver did the trick. Spray the oil on and let it sit then put the screwdriver in a slot and HIT HARD witht he hammer. I went ahead and had mine totally rebuilt by TCS and it worlds better.

 

KILLER250R,
"Can anyone shed some light on my situation?" Common sense would have told you what to do. You have never used WD-40 in your life. Some of your posts are getting strange.
